Captain Turns Drought Into Dining Cruise | Denver News

from Denver News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

When Lake Dillon’s water levels plummeted, boat rentals and charters ground to a halt—until Captain Frank Keesling turned the crisis into opportunity. With his pontoon boat, he launched “The Captain’s Table,” offering gourmet dining cruises with local restaurants, turning a drought-stricken lake into a hotspot for unforgettable meals. Even guests from Denver drove 140 miles just for the experience. While his dream of a massive houseboat for weddings remains on hold, this small-scale venture is already proving popular—and helping him salvage his season while boosting local businesses.
